Unfortunately the venue I was looking at needed liability insurance and the cost of that didn't make the day viable at this stage.  Might be able to do something in November - will just have to see how we go.

Thanks all for the good wishes - it's a kind of "it's nice to be back from never leaving moment" moment isn't it, hehe.  I found the old helmet in the closet so I thought I'd put in on for a while ;)  If I was savvy enough I'd have some fun with one of the Halo 3 trailers :)
